Job Description

We are seeking a Manager to lead and develop our well-established Construction Materials Department, based at our laboratory in Clapham, London. This is a high-level position reporting directly to the Managing Partner for the firm.

THE PERSON

You will be an expert in construction materials testing, with significant previous experience of similar activities. Report writing skills and a practical nature are essential, as is the ability to handle many live projects at once. Management experience is desirable as you will head up a small team. Strong English language skills are important, both written and verbal.

THE ROLE

The role involves advising on and testing various construction materials including concretes, aggregates, renders, mortars, stone, brick, screeds and flooring materials (including slip resistance testing).
